Two exciting bits of news from two of hip-hop's hottest up-and-comers: First, Danny Brown has finally released the tracklist of his upcoming album "Old," and Chance The Rapper has announced the dates for his headlining tour in support of his acclaimed mixtape "Acid Rap." Let's look at Danny Brown's stuff first.
"Old" is going to feature 19 tracks, and Brown is playing it pretty close to the vest in terms of guests. A$AP Rocky is certainly the biggest of the rapping guests, along with some other midlevel stars such as Ab-Soul and ScHoolboy Q, but it seems Brown is opting to handle most of the spitting himself. Among the more interesting names on the guest list aren't rappers at all, including electronic acts Purity Ring and Charlie XCX. "Old" will drop on October 8.
Check out the full tracklist below, and then check out the video for Brown's "Dip" at the bottom.
